Solstice Dawn

Solstice Dawn

“Nothing in the world’s going to pull me back
And nothing’s gong to keep me in
Going to run like the wind.
And if you should tell me you want to hold me down,
Before the glow of morning I’ll be gone without a sound.
The more you try to keep me in
The less you will succeed.
Sailing free,
Sailing free.
MIKE BATT

Sunrise on Hudson Bay Mountain in British Columbia, when the snow flushed pink for a few short moments as the rising sun shone on it, and the Full Moon was setting.

Taken from Ted Widen’s photograph “Moon-set, Sun-rise”.

I used 9” x 12” Daler Rowney Ingres paper and Schmincke, Sennelier and Unison pastels.
